RICHARD E GRANT (Withnail & I / Savage House / Gosford Park) • Friday Rewind
emocleW, emocleW, emocleW to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with RICHARD E GRANT, originally episode 250 from 2019-01-30.Original writeup below:Hopefully you will have caught his perfect video reaction to being nominated for an Oscar, which is of course well overdue but greatly deserved, or maybe you will have read about or even seen his new film ‘Can You Ever Forgive Me?’. In either case, if you have missed those, by all means CATCH UP with the quickness. But you will surely know Richard for his many varied performances throughout his illustrious career, which will DEFINITELY include the classic ‘Withnail And I’. That is a given. Add to that his star turns in films and shows like ‘LA Story’ (which forged a lifelong friendship with Steve Martin), ‘Girls’, ‘Game Of Thrones’ and a good four decades more, and there you have it. A carved in marble filmography of a true superstar right there. Covering everything including that Oscar nomination, the collaborative nature of film, how a testosterone-charged set is not always awesome, the grey area of memorabilia, the importance of casting directors, his booze allergy (believe it or not), his Swaziland origins, making theatres when he was kid and right up to the habit he shares with Pip of wearing two watches, it’s a packed episode.PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureCAN YOU EVER FORGIVE ME?TWITTERTHE INTERNETIMDBPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITTERPIP IMDB Hosted on Acast.

Today, we catch up with ALISTAIR GREEN, originally episode 482 from 2022-11-09.Original writeup below:This week Pip is joined by the hilarious and great comic ALISTAIR GREEN!You could also add actor to that list of accolades as Alistair is busy in front of the camera too, as you will hear. Kicking off with heavy metal nights and the tour t-shirt, it's a fun slip n' slide down the road of tangents as Pip and Al get down to the business of social media and rolling news being too quick for a comic hot take, making videos, creative process, making situations into comedy, the Prince Charles Cinema screening of his videos as a film (and the wonder of the cinema itself), conspiranoia, Alan Partridge and trying to resist goofing while a take is in progress, Ted Lasso and tons more. Awesome stuff and definitely one for Al heads and those who are yet familiar - much fun!

ROMESH RANGANATHAN • a very necessary dose of Romesh for your Autumn (podcasts / comedy / TV) #685
Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by national treasure ROMESH RANGANATHAN!Weirdly it's been a long time coming, this one. It feels like Romesh has never been far away but in reality it's been a bunch of years since he was last on - and that appearance was a stone cold classic (which has come up more than a few times before). Well, consider the loop closed as Romesh and Pip are united once more, this time in a 100% sober environment which allows for, let's say, a far more focused and lucid conversation. But still fun and awesome as all hell. What do we have here... Well to start with, older rappers and how to age gracefully in Hip Hop, the Romesh glowup, where to put the binge day, the podcast arc from early mic and a recorder days to the current multi-cam industry, Rob & Romesh classics, being niche but also massive, performing, old rap, and a ton more. You know what it is. A genuine pick-me-up for your mid-week DPP needs.

emocleW, emocleW, emocleW to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with KSI, originally episode 395 from 2021-07-14.Original writeup below:Pip is joined by a Youtube veteran, and definitely someone with an admirable work ethic. Inspired by the likes of Childish Gambino and early adopters, KSI has carved out his own unique space in the world of social media and by the sounds of it, not even a global pandemic can stop this train running… Hear the story of his path from Watford, and how it led to where he currently finds himself including his boxing hustle, balance, fear of losing, working harder than anyone, how Youtube accepts no defeats and how to ascend by way of constant grind.PIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureEVERYTHING KSIPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITTERPIP IMDB Hosted on Acast.

SCROOBIUS PIP performs the album 'DISTRACTION PIECES' as a spoken word set! (recorded in Canada 2021) #684
Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week is the digital debut of Pip's live spoken word rendition of the DISTRACTION PIECES album in full!For total clarity, the order of events was the solo album 'Distraction Pieces', and then this podcast. So it makes total sense that in this whole podcast ouroboros and infinity loop we have in front of us, the podcast itself is the perfect platform for the very first digital unveiling of the spoken word version! While Pip was filming in Canada in maximum pandemic, time marched on until boom, it was time for the 10 year anniversary of his solo album. With the initial album on deck as a proper reissue, it turned out that with all that isolation and solo time that was in fact legally mandated, it was the ideal moment to add a little special something to the reissue situation. What better moment to leap back in time to the days of rocking up to a venue with a notebook and not much else, to perform spoken word and get your name out there where the game was a good deal of word of mouth and not all socials. Pip packed up his mic and jetted to Stanley Park, up on the tippy top of Vancouver, recorded the whole album acapella, and this formed disc 2 of the vinyl reissue. It was never digitally released, no Bandcamps, no streamers, nothing, and so if you didn't cop the wax you won't have heard this. So it really is a very special thing indeed, and represents a really important era in the Pip career path. Enjoy, and as this isn't a regular sounding episode (ie. not an interview), maybe set aside some time to take it in properly and without - indeed - distractions.Recorded by Pip • mix/edit/master by Buddy PeacePIP'S PATREON PAGE if you're of a supporting natureSPEECH DEVELOPMENT WEBSTOREPIP TWITCH • (music stuff)PIP INSTAGRAMPIP TWITTERPIP PATREONPIP IMDB Hosted on Acast.
